UPLAND, Ind. – No. 1 Madonna kept its unbeaten record against NAIA foes this season intact and moved to 6-0 on the year against teams ranked or receiving votes in the NAIA by handing No. 9 Taylor a 27-10 defeat at Wheeler Field on Wednesday.
The visiting Crusaders (10-1, 6-0 WHAC) poured in the first 15 goals of the afternoon and never looked back, despite Taylor rebounding to play to a 7-7 draw over the third and fourth periods.
